Reshooting

Over the filming period me and Emma have had to do many reshoots this has been stressful as the reshoots we had to do were because of minor things that we missed. For example some of our characters were wearing the wrong items of clothing or forgot to have their school bags on. Also things such as being able to see the tripod in the corner of a shot or the fact that our tri pod was broken. By re-doing these shots we know it will improve our music video.

Actors

Tom Bryant will be playing our victm of bullying and our lead singer. He is 13 years old but is very confident when acting infront of the camera. Having him as both the victm and lead singer is a good idea because he is telling his story through his music video. Tom was also a good person to use as he is reliable and has been fine with giving up lunch times in school and out of school hours to help us with this.

Sam Thomas will be playing one of the bullies and the bands bassist. He is 14 years old and was confident to be in the music video but not confident to be the main character. He is Emma's brother so we knew that we could always get hold of him for filming and he was always reliable and ready to do the filming in school and out of school

Dan McGrath will be playing one of the bullies and the bands guitarist. He is 14 years old and was not very confident when it came to filming however, her tried his best and was someone else who we knew we could rely on for filming.

Ben will be playing another bully and the bands drummer. He is 14 years and we know that he plays the drums so we decided that we could use him for the band more so then the story. He was always reliable when it came to filming and was a good person to use for our music video.


Extras
Katie, Crystal, Jess, Mel, Emily and Jas will be extras in our music video so that when it came to filming the in school scenes such as the classroom scene then you actually have a classroom full of people and it looks more like a realistic lesson. All these girls were reliable and ready to film.

Music Video


We have now completed our music video and after watching over and over we have decided that some shots continue for to long and they can be sorted by splitting the clip and adding a different shot in the middle of it. For example when Tom is walking up the stairs to his class room it is shot from the bottom of the stairs. We could split this clip and have a shot in the middle from upstairs and then go back to the shot where its being filmed from downstairs. This will also mean that we can get more close-ups of Tom and show how he is feeling.

We have put our music video on Youtube, Facebook and Twitter so people can watch it and give us feedback on what was good and what could be improved..
